to anyone considering this route: a couple things. one, it takes you down about 3 miles of single track on Cove Creek. Cove Creek has been eroded by rain and currently has a bunch of 6"-12" drops off of roots, pretty gnarly on a rigid drop bar bike. also a section of the trail is completely washed off the side of the mountain. the trail is just gone, there's no way to ride around it. also, if you're following directions on your GPS, be aware that the trail doubles back on itself for no reason right before you cross Rosman Highway. otherwise a pretty good ride.
